Wide fairways, great views. Perfect for beginners. Been playing 6 months. This is a great course. No water! Front nine very hilly, back nine flatter. Will be back.

Poor for a Glendale

Was looking forward to playing this course as I hadn't been here since 2018. Walking to the first tee I was shocked that the course looked tatty, especially with the fine weather we have had. Tee boxes not cut, greens very rough ( were fast though) bunkers not even raked. Very disappointed.

Nice Course, will challenge most average golfers

Very enjoyable challenging course, not so difficult that an average golfer can't enjoy its challenge. Can fully recommend and I'll be going again soon.

Worst course I have ever played

This place is horrific the greens and tees are a disgrace and is nothing short of a complete waste of money, £25 and honestly you can barely find a putt line without divots or bald patches on the greens, I have seen council run course in better nick than this place, if anyone scores this above a 1* I would be amazed.

Nice course

Course was in decent condition considering the lack of rain. Some tees are off mats due to the relaying of teeing areas. Greens did not roll too bad but they are in need of rain as there are a lot of slits still in the greens from the March maintenance. There are some really good holes on this course. If you've not played it,it is very hilly.
